Description: The Restaurant Paladar La Fontana has been welcoming its guests since 1995 offering quality food and good service in its tranquil and pleasant spaces; La Estancia and La Floresta which offer authentic contemporary Cuban cuisine. Fontana’s bar-lounge "El Edén", supplement its culinary offer with drinks, cocktails, tapas and half portions of the highest standard. Reservations for groups dof 5 or more are possible for any of our spaces.

We had a fantastic meal at LaFontana! The restaurant is beautiful with gardens, fountains and pools. Our bartender was fantastic and friendly and the service was very attentive. We took the waiters suggestions- I had the whole fish and my husband had the lamb. Both were fantastic. The entrees were served with beans and rice. Mine was saffron rice with fresh corn- best rice I’ve ever had!We finished it off with Delicious chocolate ale. I would definitely put this on your must list when it Havana.

All my Cuban friends shuddered in horror when I mentioned La Fontana Habana and strongly advised me to avoid going there. I should have listened to them but it was so close to where I was staying it seemed sensible to give it a go, after all how difficult is it to go wrong with a menu of grills, pasta, rice and fish? Oh my word, I really should have listened to my friends, it was quite the worst dining experience in La Habana. Large gardens with fountains and ponds, a patio area and a sizeble area inside with Cuban art on the walls and a nice decor. Ok, that is the good news; all of it! I had the berenjena with tomato and parmesan although the cheeses element of the dish was hard to detect. The espinaca con ajo, aciete do oliva y chilli was a lump of green stodge and was as bereft of chilli and garlic as the tagliatella con congrejo was missing the crab. Service was delivered by sullen miserable waiting staff which made the 10% "service charge" hard to swallow. When I asked for parmesan cheese for the pasta it was as though I had made the most unreasonable of unreasonable requests and requested gold leaf rather than parmesan cheese. The time it took to arrive would normally have been long enough for the food to go cold, however as it had been delivered to the table in that state it didn't matter.The wine list was priced more outrageously than anywhere else in La Habana that I experienced, although rarely drink wine in Cuba it is always interesting to look, 2011 Rosado for 35cuc; who drinks 7 year old Rose wine?All in all not a great experience which probably explains why the restaurant was empty, and I mean empty.Terrible service, mediocre food and overpriced, recommend to avoid.

We had the whole red snapper fish and seafood paella. Everything was so flavorful. The paella was the best I have ever had!

There was also live music.

There is indoor seating in a dining room environment (it seems like maybe it was a house before) or outdoor on the beautiful terrace. There is a pond in the front with koi fish and color changing lighting.

There is a 10% fee that is added to the bill.

I would recommend makings reservations.

I went to this restaurant and found it to have the worst and most unhelpful staff in all of Havana (I´ve been living here for 5 years). The waitress who attended the table was rude and ironic, didn´t make any effort to acommodate a very simple special request, and frequently saw we were asking for her, but chose to ignore. The menu options were also unsatisfactory, with few options. The food extremely salty, the drinks very small and poor. I do not recommend you waste your time in Havana going there.
